wOW alot of difference in opinions, about the album.. i found "Another Stranger Me" and "Skalds and shadows" very interesting also, "Turn the page" for the other songs havent grew on me yet...but i think is not one of their best of course, ..today i will get "A night at the opera " and will write a short review...salut

They played for 2,5 hrs in front of a crowd of 9000 to 10.000 people.Pretty good out-turn, I would say .

The opening act was Orphaned Land from Israel.Interesting music. Some of the lyrics were in English, some in Hebrewand they included folk music themes from their country.Worth checking them out.

This is the setlist for Blind Guardian. Not in completely correct running order.It's a miracle I remembered all the titles at my age .

Encore 1:Into the Storm (including Intro)ValhallaImaginations from the other side

Yesterday we had an awesome show. The bad thing about it is that about 30% of spectators were very lame. Not that I go crazy at the shows but compared to them I just was on rampage Anyway, BG`s didn`t play 2 of my favorites they had played day earlier in Saint Petersburg - Immaginations from the other side and Mordred`s Song. But we still had an awesome setlist. And we did a little flash-mob. The Fanclub printed on A4 sheets of paper the picture of a dragon with the BG logo on it and we had to put it up during the first encore song. From my point it looked amazing. And there was a glassholder as a present for each member of the band
